    OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Page 14 Giga-Trailer 6. Hydraulic System Every hydraulic function is directly connected with and controlled from the tractor. The tractor requires a double- or single-acting control valve with free return (red = supply; blue = return) for the floor conveyor drive. A free return direct to the hydraulic oil tank is preferable as it involves less tailback pressure.
  • Page 17: Electro-Hydraulics (Special Feature)

    OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Giga-Trailer Page 15 Electro-hydraulics (special feature) The hydraulic system can be driven as an open system with max. 80 l. /min. The tractor requires a double- and a single-acting control valve with free return (red=supply;blue( thick hose)=return for the hydraulic connection. A free return directly to the hydraulic oil tank is preferable as it involves less tailback pressure.
